Red River / Rio Tinto&nbsp&nbsp2009

A film made alongside artist Marion Cruza, made out of travelings showing the Bárdenas landscape in Navarre. It was recorded between winter and spring so that snowy locations are contrasted with deserted sceneries. The film shows its own process and the ideas and trials that brought it about. Our discussions about this process are merged and combined with asides in which extras perform preparatory notes we recorded before starting the project (as work conversations). From this perspective, it is a film about how to start or resolve a film which even dwells on every stage of development while the raw material keeps a landscape logic. The soundtrack, composed by Oier Iruretagoiena, runs all the way through the film, therefore following the same loop. This film was screened in June 2010 at Montehermoso Cultural Centre together with the drawings shown below, which were made using stills from the film itself. See the full movie here
